As rabies is a virus, any mammal can technically have and/or carry rabies. Certain species such as opossums, which have too low a body temperature to harbour the virus, are extremely low risk. The hyena is immune to it, but can still carry it.
Birds, insects, amphibians and reptiles cannot carry the virus. High risk carriers are mammals of the Carnivora group, e.g. cats and their relatives, dogs and their relatives, bears, otters, skunks, weasels, badgers, and raccoons, and bats.
As a general rule, smaller rodents can carry the virus but they are low risk carriers. According to the weblink below, "In North America rabies occurs primarily in skunks, raccoons, foxes and bats. In some areas these wild animals infect domestic cats, dogs, and livestock."
In countries which are completely free of rabies, such as Australia and New Zealand, the virus is no threat at all. There is currently no chance of contracting rabies from any animal in these countries.
Note: There is further information on the effects of rabies on people on the second related weblink below.
Any mammal can become infected with rabies and then infect humans. Bats, skunks, raccoons and dogs are the most common transmitters, but cats, cows, horses, ferrets, rabbits, gerbils, hamsters and any other pet mammal could as well. Pet birds, snakes, reptiles, turtles, amphibians and fish are not susceptible to rabies and therefore could not infect a person.
All warm blooded animals can carry rabies. That can include dogs, cats, bats and even people.
non unless they have been infected by it
dogs and bats
However, rabies is extremely rare among herbivores, like rodents and bovines.
Any, if not all, wild animals carry the potential to contract rabies, if they don't already have the disease. Usually stray pets, such as dogs or cats, will catch the disease.
Any mammal can transmit rabies. Bats, raccoons, dogs, cats, foxes, and coyotes have particularly high rates of transmitting it to humans.
only mammals can carry rabies
Mostly Racoons, Squirels, Bats, and Dogs

Yes. I can get the rabies. But it will not transmit the disease to other animals.
Rabies virus is found in the saliva of an infected animal. A bite will transmit it. It is passed from one animal to another this way.
Yes they can but in a rabies way .
Yes. A Person can have a reaction to the Rabies Shots that are given to counter the Rabies Virus. Just as a person can have a reaction to any medication. However, if the dog was found to not have Rabies then the reaction will not have anything to do with the person having/getting rabies.
No. He was not the first person to get the rabies. Rabies evolved with the mammals or you can say with warm blooded animals.
No. Rabies is a disease of warm blooded animals. However, reptiles may carry an infection known as salmonella.
Rabies is transmitted by bite of rabid animals. Usually the carnivorous animals transmit the rabies. The virus is there in the saliva of the rabid animals.
if you get bitten by a dog with rabies you might get them
Animals get rabies by being bitten by another animal that has rabies.
If a dog actually has rabies, there is nothing you can do for it. You need to call the pound as soon as possible before he transfers the virus to people or other animals. A dog with rabies is incredibly dangerous. There is a rabies vaccine, but if a dog does not have the vaccine and catches the virus, there is no cure at that point.
some naimals are nice, some animals have rabies, and some naimals don't have a home
No. Rabies is not present anywhere in Australia.
